Summary0010504: PLAYER2NPCFOLLOW freezes the game.
DescriptionIf PLAYER2NPCFOLLOW is called when you're already being followed by the NPC, the game will behave as though looping forever (no player input allowed).

I discovered this by accident while trying to use the command in two separate scripts on the same sub-level. I was sure I had set it so that if one ran, the other would not, but it was as if evaluation of that command was attempted early. I have since consolidated it to just one script per sub-level, so I don't need an immediate fix.

* Fixed a bug when using PLAYER2NPCFOLLOW or PLAYER2NPCWANDER when the NPC was already that type would cause an infinite loop.
